Daddy Longlegs
I remember feeling exactly this way about Daddy Long-legs as a child....
Daddy Longlegs
Poem
A big old daddy longlegs
Creeping on the wall,
I wish that he would go away,
I don't like him at all.
I know he will not hurt me,
But I don't want him here;
So get you gone, old daddy,
And don't come again so near.
